Still new experience

I've only owned the car a little over a month. It is a 2015 not 2011. This is my 3rd Volvo. I purposely seeked out this car and found one in great condition with low miles. I went from a Dodge Ram 1500, and even though I love my truck, this wagon has more pleasantries and appointments to offer. The only draw back thus far is sitting low and not being able to see over and around the vehicles in front. Other than that, and two it being relatively new to me, I'm in love.

V50 - Amazing vehicle!

This car has been magnificent. I bought it almost 8 years ago and had relatively extremely low out of pocket cost. With 227HP it accelerates beautifully, handles like a dream - no complaints. I've found it pretty comfortable and aesthetically ? a winner.
